Well, it shouldn't be, no. But you will likely have to just get better at the game before you'll decrease those losses. However, that early on you shouldn't be fighting that many 'strong' or 'very strong' stacks. Well, maybe some strong ones.

If you have a lot of losses, you may want to consider modifying your army. For instance, low level melee units (3 and under) tend to die very quickly... they have no way to avoid retaliations.

A good rule of thumb is higher level = more efficient.
